WEBINAR:On-Demand

There is a debug patch in here which detects when someone
calls
i_size_write() without holding the inode's i_sem. It
generates a warning
and a stack backtrace. We know that XFS generates such
a trace. It will
turn itself off after the first ten warnings. Please
don't report the XFS
case.

Added the CPU hotplug code.

This kernel is currently broken on ppc64. Something to do with
the
sched-domains patch although at this stage we do not
know whether the
problem lies with that patch or with the ppc64
code.
